AUCKLAND, Aug. 29.
“ It is not our desire either to foster pr take Advantage \of any city v. country feeling,” said the president of the New Zealand Labour Party, Mr W. J. Jordan, M.P., in reply to the reported remarks by Hon. A. D. McLeod, M.P., at Dannevirko.
“Contests of the future' are more likely to be between the big landed interests of the town and country on one hand, and the working farmers and town workers on the other.
“It was a fact that efforts of the past to keep the town and country at variance had been recognised, and that the small farmers realised now that their interests and those of town workers were idanticaJ. It Was evident also that there was a breach with the Parmer’s Union, (between the large run-holders and the small farmers.” Mr Jordan described Mr McLeod’s remark about happy relationship of the Reform and United parties as “humourous.”
